DIHYDROSAFROL Usage And Synthesis
Description
Dihydrosafrole is an oily liquid. Molecularweight=164.22; Boiling point=228℃; Wiswesser linenotation: T56 BO DO CHJ G3.
Chemical Properties
Light Yellow Oil
Occurrence
Has apparently not been reported to occur in nature.
Uses
Safrole derivative. Carcinogenic.
Definition
ChEBI: Dihydrosafrole is a member of benzodioxoles.
Preparation
By catalytic hydrogenation of safrole (Arctander, 1969).
Toxicity evaluation
The acute oral LD50 was reported as 2.26 g/kg (1.84-2.78 g/kg) in rats and as 4.30 g/kg in the mouse (Jenner, Hagan, Taylor, Cook & Fitzhugh, 1964). The acute dermal LD50 in rabbits was reported as > 5 g/kg (Shelanski & Moldovan, 1973). Daily dosage for 4 days with 770 mg dihydrosafrole/kg caused macroscopic liver lesions and one death in six treated rats (Taylor, Jenner & Jones, 1964).
General Description
Oily liquid.
Health Hazard
Inhalation of material may be harmful. Contact may cause burns to skin and eyes. Inhalation of Asbestos dust may have a damaging effect on the lungs. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Some liquids produce vapors that may cause dizziness or suffocation. Runoff from fire control may cause pollution.
Fire Hazard
Some may burn but none ignite readily. Containers may explode when heated. Some may be transported hot.
Safety Profile
Confirmed carcinogen with experimental carcinogenic data. Moderately toxic by ingestion and intraperitoneal routes. A skin irritant. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.
Potential Exposure
Tumorigen,Mutagen, Primary Irritant. Workers may be exposed todihydrosafrole during its use as a chemical intermediate inthe production of piperonyl butoxide and related insecticidalsynergists; and in the production of fragrances for cosmeticproducts.
First aid
If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove anycontact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least15 min, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts theskin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediatelywith soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately. Ifthis chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR ifheart action has stopped.
